Having trouble making the gallery theme look like site theme

Hey everyone,

So I am not exactly the greatest at coding things, and right now I am really frustrated because I am unable to make my gallery fit my site's theme.

I have read all of the sticky posts and documentation, and have tried to base my theme off of coppermine's classic theme, but I just can't figure out how to make the gallery fit my site's theme. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this? I've been trying to figure this out for a few weeks now, and any help would be greatly appreciated. My gallery can be viewed at

Before you start modifying things, update to the latest version of Coppermine - 1.4.10. Then go to the demo, find a dark theme that is close to your design, install that and tweak it to match more closely. Your main column is very narrow so it might be difficult to fit Coppermine inside.

Thanks so much, I did that, and now my theme is starting to fit in place.

However, I'm still having a problem when I view an album or picture. For example, if you go to http://www.theonescar.net/gallery/index.php?cat=12 then you can see the table fitting perfectly into the main column, but then if you click on the album, you end up with this http://www.theonescar.net/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=1.
How can I stop that from happening?

I'd also like to know how to remove some of the sub menu links as well.

Your content column is too narrow for your content. Make it wider. Your overall header is way too huge, it fills my entire screen (using a resolution of 1024 x 768, which is what most users have), making me reluctant to scroll down, as I don't expect content beneath the huge header.

To remove menu items, use the "Final extract"-plugin or review the hundreds of similar postings on this board that ask a similar question.
